Saw these at IWCE earlier in the year. I actually like the vertex version better. They run the same exact software as the Mototrbo's. The main feature they lack is support for IP Site Connect and trunking I believe. (Though, I don't know how they limit the IP Site connect part since it's not subscri...

The Host 9/Dsp 12 in an XTS2500 indicates it is a 4MB "A" revision XTS2500. There are a few limits mainly lack of support for hardware encryption, total channel count probably will not go above the 512 mark (I believe this was only extended to 850-870 channels in R10 8mb models). The batte...

No worries at all - last time it took less than 24 hrs for an updated page to get posted, so we'll see how it works this time.

Offer is open to anyone.

Hey guys - If you have suggestions on how to change, re-word, or otherwise fix something on http://www.batlabs.com - Here's what I've told people on the batboard - same goes for any of you. Take the whole HTML page, not just the section that needs updating. Correct what problems there are - and emai...

Remember, you can always get the DSP refreshed. And since it's an Astro25 Host/DSP radio, that means you can have it bumped up to Host/DSP 10.x (current). Again Ray - YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. Astro Spectra Plus != 8MB Flash Memory You can NOT PUT 10.XX.XX in to a radio WHICH DOES...

I was happy with the guy I bought a bunch of astro saber parts from for $50... including a 1mb vocon.

Batboard Northeast will probably be representing, though, I have some crap to sell, so I may buy a table.

The UCM's in the 2500 platform radios connect via the keypad from what I hear. You can buy a retrofit package (eventually) which will allow you to convert your radio from a "A" 2500 (aka 4mb) to a "B" 2500 (8mb) which in theory, will also include the $40ish keypad change out whic...

I believe the Quantar replacement is the GTR8000 or something like that. I'm not 100% on that, but I know it's G**8000.

You HAD something frequency-agile in your collection.

It's called a MW800 and a Rib.

I spoke to Justin, he may join for food, and I left Voicemail for Richard, though, earlier in the week he said he'd go.

pj says providing mary's sister doesn't pop out a kid tomorrow, they should be up there too.

Alex + 2

I'd still say chat at around 1-2 PM, see what people want to do, as depending on what's going on make dinner plans. I wouldn't expect a huge wait at 5PM on Sunday, but calling at 2pm would be the same as calling in the morning tomorrow, since they technically don't take reservations.

Thanks in advance

I should have one with me.

Damn. I was just walking around the MIT Flea last weekend. Where was that puppy.... :)

I should be there in the AM... anyone else?

Hamsexy folks? Richard was supposed to show up, but he slept through his alarm clock. Bastard. Other than that, I saw a lot of people that I bump in to at Dayton or at other hamfests and such, but no one else that I recognized as being on the site, but then again, I don't know everyone. I was still ...

What time does the fest start and end that day? 5PM after a hamfest seems rather late in the afternoon... just my $0.02

Anyone going? I have to dig around and see if it's still at the Albany street lot. It's been a long time.

I *may* be up in that neck of the woods, but am really not sure yet.

-Alex

We were gone by 11ish. Not a lot to see... I saw the EX600 you were speaking of, R split I believe. If it were an S-Split, I may have given it more consideration. He had an HT1000 as well, but wanted too much for it. It wasn't a bad hamfest in retrospect, more M gear that I actually expected. I may ...

See ya all tomorrow... Probably will be sporting the Dayton 07 T-Shirt... I think it's clean at least.

151.88 IMBE :)

-Alex

Heh - I left you a VM about it this AM Richard - I think I was supposed to meet up with you last year for it, and slacked off.

Regardless, it looks like I'll take a ride out there.

I can do astro on U or V, so I could care less what we use.

Green would work fine with me. I'll pin ya.

-Alex

Is it worth going? Is it a decent size fest? I thought about going last year, but skipped out IIRC...

Of course digital will be used :)

-Alex

Looks like Unix or Java based PDF style viewer.

I may go... depends on level of motivation and desire to pay $14 worth of tolls :)

I will probably go for S&G's.

I'd still like to play with one of the Asia/PAC CDM mobiles that has the 6-8 line display. I think the asia ones support MDC inhibit from the keypad too!

-Alex

If I don't have anything better to do... I'll go.

-Alex

Ummmm...That's great, but is the rest of the system D-Star or just the one receiver? If he doesn't have a D-star tranmitter as well, then what is the use. If on the other hand it is the entire repeater tied into the rest of his repeaters, then I see... Exactly my point I was trying to make. Thanks ...

So he put a RX... how nice... how about a repeater? :)

We should just buy Hara.

Nevermind.

Yeah, I'm not really sure *why* I want to go. I suspect I'll get angry and leave in the first 10 minutes. I was hoping I could get Alex to go along, but he's "busy" ... I already assessed traveling to rochester this weekend, and the cost of flying (and the fact that I already have a ticke...

Sorry, but due to costs, I just can't swing it.

Sorry to disappoint, I'll try and make it down to visit with some more advanced planning this time.

If you swing through the UNYREPCO meeting wanna get the status of my coordination that has been in their hands for 6 months? Don't get me started on UNYREPCO and WYNSORC. They have pretty much permanently scared my respect for people who coordinate repeaters in NY. Waste of Fing time. Put the crap ...

Actually, our comm bus might have to do an event, so I might be out on this already.

If I go, i'll look for ya.

-Alex

I live in Hoboken now.

Regardless, I'd probably consider just driving over. I probably will have nothing better to do, unless your point blank telling me it's really not worth it...
